The Power of Twitter: Female University Students Are NOW Allowed To Use Their Phones On Campus

Avatar

Not just phones, but all electronic gadgets! King Saudi University also took a step further by  removing the need for male guardian’s approval if a female student wants to leave the campus before 11 AM! 

Thousands of students and their parents took to twitter to protest the ban with the hashtag #mobilephonesofBishauniversity which prompted Saudi Education Minister Ahmed Al-Issa to instruct universities to lift a ban on using mobile phone  inside universities. 

Students and parents  courageously complained against female students being searched to hand over phones. 

At least 7 public and private university previously had mobile phone bans on female students!

The statement released said that ‘female students are mature enough’ to balance and  live their lives using modern devices.
